The GE Approach…
The Problem
A leading multi-location heating and ventilation company sought a leasing provider to support their
network of mobile engineers with vehicles that could be used as mobile “toolboxes”. The challenge
behind this was the vehicle had to be capable of transporting both engineer, tools and parts to site
within a fully maintained contract hire package.
Analysis
From initial discussions, it was observed that current vehicles were being used to carry both engineer
and a heavy overstock of parts. Through a detailed examination of the operating requirements, and the
stockholding “churn” of the parts carried, it was established that a reduction in stock of smaller parts
was necessary. This necessitated a vehicle with the inherent advantages of lower monthly rental, better
fuel consumption figures and greater driver acceptance.
Separately a study was undertaken of the various manufacturers within the size/weight band criteria
defined, and a chosen vehicle make was established. This decision was based upon a basket of criteria
including dealer location, downtime studies, operating costs and fuel consumption figures.
In order to source the most suitable vehicle, a study was also undertaken of the load area layout in
association with an interior fitting company, so the load space was set out to maximise productivity
and access for faster moving parts.
As part of the contract hire package, the issue of vehicle “exchange” was looked at, and the transfer of
vehicles from one engineer to another. Vehicle movement and storage was included in the package,
which also included maintenance on the vehicle to be transferred.
The Solution
This resulted in a sole supply LCV arrangement for both the existing client, together with a following
sole-supply agreement with the parent entity.

The GE Approach…
The Problem
A national facilities management company with multiple sites and a multiple range
of products required a solution to be able to provide contract hire on their car fleet
and also their LCV fleet whilst still maintaining flexibility for seasonal and business
growth requirements.
Analysis
This was achieved by providing our expertise in identifying the most suitable
product for the job and mileage. The load type and payload was researched across
all divisions of their business and a generic spec was reached which reduced their
vehicle range equipment by 80 % and allowed massive downtime savings by working
with a single manufacturer and maintenance provider. This also resulted in cost
savings for the business.
The Solution
We were able to provide the flexibility in size of fleet needed by the business by pooling
of vehicles to specification and providing a rental service for the fleet to cope with
additional seasonal requirements.
